It was great to talk with fellow IMCP regions on our Tuesday conference call, and hear the latest updates from our BFF's at EDA, EPA and NIST. Sasha and I did our best to capture who was interested in what. Look for a spreadsheet soon on this website and in your email inboxes for your to review.Meanwhile here are everyone's assignments!

Look for a doodle poll from ﻿Lisa Katz(﻿Michigan) to set a time to discuss legislative strategy and a DC fly-in.

Jennifer Ptak (Chicago) couldn't make the call, but has committed to developing a communications webinar later in the year. More on communications efforts soon!

David Palmer (Michigan) is going to ask the Manufacturer Alliance of Communities if they can lead an advocacy/education webinar for us prior to the DC fly-in. Even if you aren't planning on going to DC, this will help you be ready when you get calls (or meet with) members of your Congressional delegations or others.

Wait for more about a fundraising webinar being developed by Lisa Katz. She will reach out to our BFF's and to some of you to put this together. If you have ideas, please contact her.

Look for a doodle poll from Sasha Anderson (Seattle) to get the ball rolling on data, benchmarking and metrics.
